Unknown Islands In the Pacific.

The fact that two islands Of consider
able size have recently been discovered in
the Pacific ocean shows that we have yet
much to learn Of this great watery ex-
panse. The latest discovery is an island
lying less than 100 miles from the north
ern coast of New Guinea. II has been
namel Allison island, is nearly three
miles long, rises from 100 TO 100 feet
above the sea, and has abundant timber.
Several specks Of fertile and inhabited
land, some Of them much larger than
Allison island, have been found within
few years at distance of 100 To 200 or
800 miles from the New Guinea coast,
and similar discoveries are made once in
a while in various parts OF the Pacific.
Once in a while Pacific trader finds
some new or little known island, and
opens trade with its inhabitants. IL
business thrives he keeps his secret as
long as he can, 20 as to enjoy monop-
oily. II was found awhile ago. when the
Woodlark islands were explored, that an
Australian firm had carefully charted
the islands several years before, and had
been quietly trading there, all unknown
TO the other Pacific merchants.

Growth OF Hair After Death.

Said well known business man, resid-
ing in one of the upper wards, during the
week: "A remarkable case of preserva-
ton after death came under my obServa-
ton recently, Something over fifteen
years ago my father died and was inferred
at Greenwood. Not long since my mother
desired 10 have the remains transferred to
another plot than that in which they were
buried. When the coffin was taken up
she had it opened, and looked at the
corpse. The face and form showed not
the slightest indication Of decomposition.
The expression on the countenance was
Almost as natural as in life. The figure
was intact. Beside, the clothing was not
damaged a particle, and looked like new.
The only change was in the hair and
whiskers. When my father was placed
in the grave his hair was cut short and
his face clean shaven. The other day it
was found that he had grown long
beard and his hair fell in luxuriant pro-
fusion about his shoulders. ."-Rrooklyn

To Remove Scale from Boilers.

About a couple of years ago Mr.. George
Downie, the proprietor Of Touring mill
at Salinas City, Cal, was in the habit Of
tiltering water in an old heater in order to
free il AS far as possible from the mineral
qualities that formed scale in his boiler
Chemical compounds supposed to prevent
the formation of scale had been used
without effect. and Mr.. Downie resorted
to the filtering of water as partial pre-
ventive. His process was to run the
water through the heater and let it drain
through straw. One day he happened TO
be out of straw. but as the leaves from
one Of the eucalyptus trees which stood
near the mill were handy he employed
them instead. To Mr.. Downie's surprise
the formation If scale in the boiler
stopped and that which was already there
began To he removed. lie thought il well
Ia continue his experiments with the
eucalyptus leaves and on proving the re-
suit informed others what he had dis
covered. In very short time the leaves
of the eucalyptus tree fell into very gen
eral use among the engineers on the Pa
citic coast for removing scale from all
boilers and from preventing corrosion. -

sailors Not n shiniess Set.

It is too much the fashion to allude to
our sailors as a thriftless, careless class,
who only draw their wages incontinently
to waste them. Seeing, however, that
during the past year "Jack" RENTED
no less than f437, 900 to his relatives and
friends by means of money orders OBJ
tanned at various postoffices at home and
abroad, it is only fair to give him some
credit for forethought and consideration.
OF this sum about f43, 900 was RENTED
from abroad, the totals at various ports
being curiously dissimilar. For instance,
from Hamburg no less than f7,G0t was
sent home, while from Pira,is only 81
was dispatched. From the five ports Of
Hamburg, Bremen, Havre. Antwerp and
Amsterdam more than f33,00 was re-
mitted. leaving only fl0,000 for the
united reinittances from the other thirty.

DIFFERENT STYLES OF ADVERTISING.
What a Brooklyn Advertiser Has to Say
About Them.

What q Brooklyn Advertiser Has to Say
About Them.
"The style Of advertising has greatly
changed within the past few years."
said gentleman in charge Of the adver-
tising department of one of Brooklyn's
largest dry goods establishments to re-
porter. IAN advertisement to command
attention must be original. The public
have tired of such ads. as John Smith
will receive his customers at his old
stand, or Blank & Blank sell dry goods
cheaper than any other house in town.
The present generation is progressive,
and to attract their attention one must be
original. Old fashioned ads. are played
out. In former years, even in such big
houses as Stowart's, in New York, the
clerk at the button counter was dele
gated in his off moments to write the ad-
vertisements for the newspapers Now
all is changed. Every large business
house has its separate advertising depart
ment. Some houses even employ as
many as two and three men to look
after their advertising.
Since the pictorial craze has obtained
such foothold many firms head their
columns with pictures descriptive Of the
goods offered for sale. And then the
ad. must be written so as TO attract the
eye of the reader. II firm has a guam
tity of underwear to sell. it is folly to say
so in the first line. First get your reader
interested. Talk about the north pole:
say that il is cold in that region, and in
cidentally mention that winter is coming
and that underwear at this season is not
an inappropriate subject And then, in
confidential way, tell the reader that
your firm has many cases Of underwear.
purchased at bankrupt sale. perhaps.
which will be sold at one-half its value.
Intersperse, il you like, witty saying
here and there. but unless YOU wish to
kill yUIr adj in the first line give prices.
Ten years ago prices were never given.
Now an all commands hut little atten-
ton unless prices are attached"
"Do you believe in the value of adver-
tising;"
Certainly. Were it not for news
paper advertising and advertising by
mail many Brooklyn firms would not be
doing business. When one looks hack
and notes the difference between news
paper advertising twenty years ago and
to-day, the changes which have taken
place are marvellous. How many for
tunes have been made py simply boom
ing an inferior patent medicine? News
paper advertising is yet in its infancy and
hope for great things IN the future. -
